Pulp Fiction
BOTANY and other stories brought The Cabinet of Curiosities back to Hay-on-Wye on Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th April 2025, filling the Butter Market in Hay-on-Wye with a new exhibition.
Why? To examine paper in all its forms (with a focus on books) and explore its various links with the natural world.
We took this opportunity to celebrate Hay-on-Wye, the world’s first Town of Books, created by Richard Booth and twinned with two other towns with strong links to books: Timbuktu in Mali with its ancient manuscripts and Redu in Belgium, known as a Village du Livre/Book Town.
The weekend was an opportunity...
to become a Friend of BOTANY and other stories
to meet the team and discuss the plans for 2025
for young people to join the Budding Botanical Artists Club.
Thank you to everyone who came to visit!
